11 Plus Preparation FAQs
The questions parents ask most about 11 Plus tutoring at NLG.
Many families begin in Year 5 so there is time to build familiarity and timed practice gradually. Starting in Year 6 can still help when the test date and priority gaps are clear. The plan should be based on your child’s starting point, not a fixed number of months.
There is no single 11 Plus test used everywhere. GL Assessment provides tests covering English, Maths, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal or Spatial Reasoning, while schools and consortia can set different combinations and timings. Tell us your target school so preparation matches its current published requirements.
Yes, and it is one of the most common starting points. Reasoning is not part of the standard primary curriculum, so tutors teach each question type with a clear method, then build accuracy and pace through timed practice.
There is no fixed number. It depends on the test date, your child’s starting point, the areas in the target test and how much practice fits alongside school. The tutor uses the first lessons to shape the plan.
Yes. Timed mock papers are built into the programme, with marking and feedback afterwards to show which areas to focus on next.
NLG provides online 11 Plus preparation for families across England. Test formats and admissions rules vary by area, so tell us the target school and confirm the latest arrangements with the relevant admissions authority.
It can still be worth starting, but the plan needs to be realistic. Tutors focus on the highest-priority content, question formats and pacing for the target test, without promising a particular result.
